10 years ago I was still stuck in the query trenches (lost & confused). Here’s a few things I’ve learned about writing/publishing in the past decade 🧵 1. Resilience. Rejection is part of the job. It gets easier. It’s not that your work isn’t good it’s that it isn’t a good fit.

After two energising days of publishing meetings in Dublin, I'm feeling inspired by the abudance of excellence, willingness to take risks, and brilliant author care on display by the bucketload here in Ireland šŸ’« and the cafĆ© in Books Upstairs is a magic spot for a chat

a book to read by the fire, or under a tree; a Desert Island Discs pick; a friend if you're feeling low and need reminding of all the delights - from humdrum to sublime - of life, from the pen of a 20th century master mind. If you just read one book this winter, let this be it!
